THRESHERS REQUIRED TO| accept the estimated figures for the

FURNISH RETURNS

The Minister of Agriculture desires

to draw the attention of threshermen |
| throughout the province to co-operate

throughout the province to the con-
ditions under which threshing per-
mits are issued by the department.
Each registered machine owner is
sent a license for the season accom-
panied by a blank form on which he
is required to make a return to the
department of agriculture showing
the number of acres and the number
of bushels threshed during the season,
Up to the present time a considerable
number of threshermen have not
complied with this regulation and it
is pointed out that complete returns
of this kind provide the on'y basis on
which a definite statement can be is-
sued showing the total and average
yield of the various grains produced
each year in the province. In the
absence of this definite information
the department is in the position of
having to accept estimated figures
compiled in other ways. For this
reason it has been found necessary to

FOX FUR INDUSTRY

IN DISTRICT THRIVES

Destined to be one of the largest
silver fox fur industries in the
Province is that located at Olds, the
property of Mrs. O. J. Harmer of
Didsbury.

The initial pair of animals were
supplied by Montgomery Bros.,
Wetaskiwin, who cams to this prov-
ince from Prince Edward Island,
the birthplace of the Canadian fox
fur industry. Their foxes have
taken numerous prizes at Calgary,
Vancouver and other big exhibi-
tions.

Mr. Frank Jearot, who has
charge of the farm, stated that the
present pens contain 26 registered
silver foxes, the farm being started
in Dec. 1927. New pens have had
to be built continually to aceom-
modate the natural inerease and in
the near future will cover rot a

‘little amount of ground, Mr. Jean-
ot himself also raises a number of
mink, badger, coyottes and Chin-
ichilla rabbits, a number of very
tine specimens of these animals be-
ing viewed,

Few people are cognizant of this
farm so close to our confines. It
is an industry which is making
rapid strides not only in this prov-
ince but in other parts of the Dom-
inion.

Mrs. Harmer is a member of the
Dominion Fox Breeders Associa-
tion, Ottawa, and the Alberta Fox
Breeders Association, Calgary. At
a recent luncheon of the Alberta
Association in Calgary Mr. Carru-
thers, Federal Inspector of Register-
ed Foxes, made special mention of

Ithe farm at Olds.

ite Wekibic Weeds Menace

This is an age of conventions. They are a natural growth and outcome
of the more complex and highly organized development of modern life.
They are, too, a recognition of the fact that the principles and methods 01
co-operation are, in many ways and to a large extent, replacing the old
individualistic ideas and efforts of’ the past. This is not to say that the
value of individual responsibility and initiative has been, or is to be, dis-
carded; rather, that in this age of rapid transportation and communication
the old isolation has disappeared and peoples and nations are brought close
together. They must, therefore, act as units rather than as distinct and sepa-
rate entities.

This by way of introduction to a reference to a recent gathering held
in Saskatchewan at the call of the Provincial Minister of Agriculture,
namely, the first Saskatchewan Weed Conference. It was not a large and
spectacular convention as many present-day conventions are, but in the
importance of the problem it met to consider, it took second place to none.
And while it was a Saskatchewan Conference, its deliberations and findings
were of equal value to the other prairie provinces.

The conference was summoned in recognition of the fact that weeds
are making tremendous headway in Western Canada, and that some action |
must be taken, over and above the preventive policies or the past, if the!
inroads of weeds and the consequent enormous loss to the farmers and the |
country as a whole is to be checked.

e

|
The conference was attended not only by officials of the Saskatchewan |

Government, municipalities anc farmers’ organizations, but by Dominion
Government Officials, representatives of the railways, mortgage and loan
companies, manufacturers, business men, merchants—in a word, every or- |
ganization having a vital interest in the productive capacity and prosperity |
of Western Canada,

It was frankly and unanimously agreed that the whole country must

be aroused and organized in a campaign for the destruction and elimination |
of weeds, The only alternative is a rap‘dly decreasing agricultural produc- ;

tion both in quantity and quality, smaller returns to the tarmer, and de-
creased business and prosperity for all.

The duty and responsibility of the individual fariner tn the matter of |
keeping his own land free of weeds was in no sense minimized, but it was}

recognized that, human nature being what it is, some men will neglect their
duty, and while they themselves suffer as a result of such neglect, they

also inflict loss upon their neighbors who are doing their duty, and upon}

the community and country as a whole.

The need, therefore, for concerted Government and municipal action
was emphasized, and the absolute necessity, in the interest of all, for more
drastic contro] recognized.

It was realized that not only
control and eradicated, but that much more efficient measures must be caken
und greater precautions observed to put a stop to the sowing of weed seeds
and the propagation of the weed plants.

It is not possible in this arlicle to discuss all the phases of this intricate
problem, but at this season of the year, when farmers are beginning to think
about and plan their work for the spring
That is, the importance of sowing good, clean seed and not a mixture of
grain, good and bad, and weed seeds,

i yery was Je by see ill survey |
The astounding discovery was made by the seed drill survey conducted | showing a steady growth.

in Saskatchewan that 70 per cent. of the seed sown in the province was
lower than No, 2, due largely to the inefficient operation of farm fanning
mills. In other words, while farmers and governmental authorities on the
one hand are fighting weeds, the farmers in the sowing of their crops are
planting thousands of bushels of weed seeds.

The first step towards victory over the weed enemy is to put an im-
mediate and definite stop to the planting
If the propagation of weeds is continually carried on and assisted in this way,
it must be recognized that the weed menace will grow, and that final vic-
tory will rest with it and not with the farmer.

The spring slogan for all Western farmers in 1929 should be:

To Check “FLU,” Grippe

Dights the Germs in the Throat Before They Invade Other Parts of
the Body.

EFFECTIVE PREVENTIVE MEASURES EXPLAINED

Simple precautions taken now wil! enable you to fight dreaded “Flu”
which is sweeping rapidly through the whole country. The germs of
Influenza gain access to the body through the mouth and throat. Keep
the throat healthy and you go a long way towards stopping the trouble
An effective means of prevention is to garble the throat three or four
times daily with Nerviline. Half a teaspoonful of Nerviline in water

makes a most efficient gargle. The germ-killing yroperties of Nerviline
quickly destroy any bacteria in the mouth or throat, If the chest is sore.
if the throat is hoarse, if you have a cough—be sure, to rub the neck
ond chest with Nerviline. Every drop of it will rub in, and out will
come the congestion.

Of course it is absolutely necessary to house-clean the system with
Dr. Hamilton's Pills which stimulate the eliminating organs, and rid the
system of disease-breeding wastes. This combination treatment of Ner-
viline and Dr, Hamilton's Pills will give prompt and

entirely
tory results.

J. D. McGregor, Brandon, to Succced
Late Hon, T. A. Burrows

J. D. McGregor, Brandon, has been
appointed leutenant-governor of the
province of Manitoba. Mr. McGregor
succeeds the late Hon. T. A. Bur-
rows who died in Winnipeg recently.
Announcement of the appointment
was made by Premier W. L. Mac-
kenzie King at the conclusion of a
meeting of the cabinet.

The lieutenant-governorship was
oftered Mr. McGregor several days
ago, and from his home in Brandon,
he announced acceptance of the post,
stating that he considered the ap-
pointment as a compliment to the
agricultural interests of the prov-
ince rather than to himself person-
ally.

WAS ALWAYS AILING
NEVER FELT WELL

Health Restored Through the Use
of Dr. Williams’. Pink
Pills

“I am one of the many who have
found new health through the use ot
Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills,” says Mrs.
Everitt Dowe, South Nelson, N.B.
“For some years I never felt well,
and at times was so weak that I|
would be confined to bed. At the
very best I was in an ailing condi-
tion and found it difficult at all times|
to do my housework. I wag subject
to headaches, poor appetite, breath-
less at the least exertion, and very
pale. Before Dr. Williams’ Pink
Pills were recommended to me I had!
tried several medicines, but without}
any good results. I had become}
completely discouraged and felt that |
I would always be an invalid, A}
friend strongly urged me to take Dr.!
| Williams’ Pink Pills, and _ finally 1|
consented to do so, but without much |
hope that they would help, where}
other medicines had failed. But in!
| this, to my joy, I was mistaken. I|
| had not been taking the pills very |
| long when I knew they were help- |
| ing me. As I continued their use}
|I found my appetite improving, I
slept better at night, and my
strength was gradually returning. I}
continued taking the pills for several
months, when I again found myself |
a well woman, and I believe that!
had it not been for Dr. Williams'|
Pink Pills I would to-day be a help- |
less invalid. The pills have since |
been taken by others in our family, |
with the same beneficial results, T
strongly urge every weak woman to)
try this grand health-building medi: |
cine.”

Baltimore Physician Says Lack of
Lime Makes People Irritable

More lime in the dict as a pre-

Dr. George Walker, addressing the
National Housewives, Inc., at Balti-
more. Absence of lime, he de-
clared, makes a woman nervous and
@ man cruel—hence family troubles
result.

When there is every appearance
of a home being wrecked Doctor
Walker suggested that lime, as
found in a pint of milk, added to the
diet of a couple daily for two weeks
in all probability would adjust mat-
ters, restore amicability and keep
the home intact.

He also would add two oranges
a day for each and a quarter pound
of cold slaw at least three times a
week.

DON’T EXPECT TO BE SICK

Why should men and women and
children become sick? It is easy, of
course, to blame wrong diet, faulty
living and the rush and strain of
modern life. But we are probably
paying more attention to our diet and
our, habits of living today than ever
before, while if we suffer from rush
and strain we must also bear in mind
the many helps we have at our serv-
ice to enable us to meet that rush
and strain. Living really much easier
now than in our grandmother’s time;
people worked much harder then, and
much longer, and reached a point of
physical exhaustion that we hardly
realize as possible.

It seems to us that the idea of
sickness being inevitable has entered
into consciousness of the race and we
expect to be sick, to have our share
of any illnesses that are going around,

and are perhaps somewhat disap- |

pointed when we do not acquire the
popular disease of the hour. People

will ask each other, “Have you had '

the influenza at your house yet?” and
we reply, “Not yet,” both questioner

and answerer implying that a visit |

from the influenza germ is to be ex-
pected, In the same way, when one
has such a disease as influenza all the
other members of the family expect
to get Tt; “it’s got to go through the
house,” we say, and some seem
peeved if it does not,

What we are driving at is this,
that disease is largely a matter of
the mind; we think in terms of dis-

ease and hence, we get a term of |

disease. Serves us jolly well right,
if such be the case. What we need
to do is first to get a right conception
of our bodies, see them as being per-
fect, remember that they are God-
created, and that He not only intended
them to be perfect, but that they
AP perfect. See perfection in your-
self; refuse to admit imperfection.
The natural. normal condition of the
hody is health, regard yourself as be-
ing normal, not abnormal, because if

ou are diseased you are abnormal— |

for the time.

Anv doctor will tell you that it is
not the medicine he prescribes that
restores von to health when you are
sick; it is Nature doing its work, It
ld seem to be true, per contra,

that we become sick because Nature |
| Wall Street, while its neighbor, the |

has not been on to its job, but that
is never true of Nature. What hap-
pens is that we get the thought of
sickness into our minds and, there-
fore, we get inharmonious conditions
in our bodies. If we refused to en-
tertain disease we would not have to
entertain the disease; and it becomes

costly entertainment. You spend a
lot of money entertaining friends
sometimes, but you spent a lot more

entertaining any old disease. So
think health, see your body as being
perfect, remember there is no power
in the universe greater than God, and
that He is fully able to keep in health
what he was created—provided you
who dwell in the Temple that we call
the body and which is the Temple of
God, will refuse to entertain the
disease thought, and will cease ex-
pecting to be sick any more. Don't
expect to be sick!

A™v 24-hour motor detour of
142 miles along perfect motor
| roads through the Canadian Rock-
| fes is announced by the Canadian
Pacific Railway, which states that
| the trips will run every day in
each direction from either Banff,
Alta., or Golden, B.C., beginning
on June 15 and ending on Sep-
tember 5, By this detour a travel-
ler can leave the train either at
Banff or Golden, atay the night
at Lake Louise, and continue the
motor drive next morning, rejoin-
ing the train that afternoon.

This new motor road, built b
the Canadian Government throug
Rocky Mountain, Nationa) Park
and Yoho National Park, is a very
magnificent one, At one point it
rises to a height over a mile above
sea level, while at the highest
point it is nearly three-quarters
of a mile higher than at Its low-
est level. Nearly forty mountains
tower in the vicinity of the road,
and gigantic glaciers, roaring riv-
ers, deep canyons and primeval
forests abound. Wild mountain
game are also met with in abund-
ance at the roadside.

Motoring in the Canadian Rock-
jes ia the tourist's keenest delight,
more especially after a railway
journey. For this reason a sched-
ule has been drawn up for the
season of 1928, to coincide with
| the arrival and departure of trains
at Banff, Field or Golden.

The large touring cars used for
} this trip are commodious and com-
fortable, with facilities for hand-
baggage. Johnston's Canyon, 16

always feel safe in using them.

Concerning the Tablets, Mrs. John
Armour, R.R. 1, South Monaghan,
Ont., says: ‘We have threc fine,
healthy children, to whom, when a}
medicine is needed, we have given|
only Baby's Own Tablets. The Tab- |}
Jets are the best medicine you can)
keep in any home where there are|
young children,”

Baby's Own Tablets are a mild but
thorough laxative which regulate the |
stomach and bowels; banish const: |

colds and simple fever and make
teething easy. ‘They are sold by

holiday season, must have been espe- |
cially bitter.

LONG SLEEP MAKES |
BABY HAPPY AGAIN |

“Our baby kept waking us several)
times a night, until we started giving
him a little Castoria after his last
nursing,” says an Iowa mother. “He
slept soundly from the first night,
and it made him look and feel worlds!
better.” Baby specialists endorse
Fletcher's Castoria; and millions of |
mothers know how this purely-|
vegetab'e, harmless preparation
helps babies and children, with colic,
constipation, colds, diarrhea, etc, The

wrapper of genuine Castoria. Avoid

Then rub vigorously with Vicks

REPENTANCE AND FAITH

Golden text: Repent ye, and be-
lieve in the gospel. Mark 1.15.

Lession: Isaiah 1.10-20; Ezekiel
18,20-23, 27-82; Mark 2.1-12; Luke
3.1-14; 15.11-24; Acts 2.32-39; He-
brews 11.1-10.

Devotional reading:

Explanations and

Psalm 27.1-5.

Comments

Jesus Is Sovereign and Messiah,
Acts 2.14-36—Peter is speaking to
Jews, and his first object is to prove
that Jesus fulfilled Old Testament
in re-
| pard to the Messiah, hence he tells
|; them (verses 15-21) that the events
of Pentecost which had so amazed
them are but the fulfilment of Joel's
y (Joel 2.28-32), that at the}
coming of the Messiah God’s Spirit |
would be poured forth, and old and
young, men and women, bond and
free, would see visions and speak di-
vine truths,

Then Peter takes up his great
theme that Jesus ts the Christ, and
| gives three proofs, First, there are}
the miracles which his hearers had}
| themselves witnessed. Second, there |
is the resurrection, of which they all|
are witnesses: God had raised Jesus
from the dead to higher life and
wider power. Third, there is the
{pouring forth of the Holy Spirit at
Pentecost, which they have seen and|
heard: Jesus still lives and cares for}
his followers, for it is He who has
sent the Spirit. Furthermore, the |
resurrection and exaltation fulfiil a
prophecy of David, as given in
Psalm 110.1:

The Lord said unto my Lord, sit thou
on my right hana,

stool of thy feet.

Two different Hebrew words for
Lord are used in the first line, and |
the meaning is, Jehovah said ae
the Messiah. David could not have
been speaking of himself, for Davi a
did not ascend into the heavens. “Sit
;thou on my right hana” means, Be
purtaker of the divine glory and do-
“Till I make thine enemies
the footstool of thy feet” is an ex-

which originated, no doubt, from the
ancient custom of conquerors put-
ting their feet on their enemies’

Then comes the climax of Peter's
sermon: ‘Let all the household of
Israel therefore know assuredly that

Christ,
fied.”

Alberta’ s ‘Form Ww ealth

The Calgary Herald says that in
1906 the Province of Alberta had a
farm wealth which was estimated at
$50,000,000, while in 1927 it had
jumped to $338,161,458. And while
it produced about 6,000,000 bushels
of wheat in the former year, in the
latter it yielded 162,000,000 bushels.
We wonder what 1947 will show!

A Real Literary Find
The New York Times says that
one of the greatest rarities in United
States literature, a first edition of
Edgar Allen Poe's “The Murders of
the Rue Morgue,” has been found in
a pile of old books which a second-
(hand dealer bought for a trifle.
Before news of the discovery be-
came public, however, the volume
was bought for $25,000 by a New
York book collector.

A week before Dominion Day men
began applying for leave of absence
until the exodus depleted the crew
to such an extent that it was deemed
advisable to shut down for a week.)
Donald turned to Gilis as he saw
the whole crew of “redshirts’ pile

tumultuously on the train. |

“How often do the men quit Nke
this?" he asked rather irritably.

“Every holiday,’’ replied Gillis.

Donald pondered a moment.

“That means that we may lose a
week for Labour Day.”

“Very likely.’ |

“Jack, do you think we could keep.

celebration at the lake?” |

and as they walked Gillis indulged |
in some pointed observations. “You,

As they passed the high-rigger’s
little cabin, Gillis poked his head
through the door. Blackie was ab-
sorbed in the task of sewing a patch
on a pair of worn boots. A mourn |
ful wind blew querulously around
the cabin. |
“Say, Blackic, do you know what!
that wind is saying?” |
Blackie gruntea a negative.

«4 committee of four men waited
on Renwick and presented an ulti-
matum, They demanded a heavy in-
crease in wages, or they would call
for an immediate cessation of work
on the part of the men they rep-
resented. Renwick promptly refused.
In 15 minutes every man in the mill
except the clerical staff, the
chanics and the engineer, walked
out. In the woods only Gillis’ “red-
shirts” remained at work.

The strikers moved up the track
and made camp on a point of land
on the lake shore. That night the
decor of the commissary was prised
from its hinges and a quantity of
fcod stolen, and the night watch-
man put out a fire of incendiary
origin.

Kenwick, while returning from the
power house, was shct at twice from
ambush. He wired his resignation
to Robert Rennie, and in terrified
haste packed his belongings and left
on the next train. An hour later the
agent brought Donald a telegram:

“Donald McLean,

The Improved
Glass Substitute
COMES WITH A MESSAGE OF HEALTH

HE sun ifs the all-powerful life producer,
Nature's universal disinfectant and
germ destroyer, as well as stimulant

and tonic. WINDOLITE is the sun's most
iniportant ally.

Medical research has definitely proved
that from the point of view of Hrelth and
Hygiene, the most effective among the sun's
tay, are the Ultra-Violet rays, which possess
the greatest power for the prevention and
cure of disease and debility.

Science has further established that or-
dinary window glass does not allow the pas-
sage of Ultra-Violet rays, so that by using
plass we are artificially excluding these vital
health-giving rays Therefore, the invention
of WINDOLITE has completely satisfied the
long-felt want Exhaustive experiments
have conclusively proved that {t {s a most
etfective substitute for glass, that it freely
admits the Ultra-Violet rays, and that {ts use
has a most beneficial effect on the growth
end development of p'ants and chickens and
on the well-being of cattle, enabled for the
first time to have healthy light instead of >
darkness in their sheds.

Indeed, the discovery of WINDOLITE has
during the last six years completely revolu-
tionved gardening, given a new stimulus to
poultry breeding, increasing the egg-laving
capacity and fertility of chickens, has greatly
while improved the heath of cattle and is now he-
weighs {ny used in domestic and household require-
